post #370 : what stagiaires really do

i do have work. but with nobody in the office and zero inclination to do it...i tend to wander off. in the meantime, instead of curik tulang bergossip and mengumpat bosses and hour long coffee breaks (which is what the french actually do), i've decided to share whatever garbage i read today with all of you.

monday was the 40th anniversary of the first moon landing. now that was 40 years ago so i thought...moon, old hat. turns out, the US hasn't been back on the moon since the 1970s and it still their main priority.

personally.....enough with the moon. let's go find little green men in mars pulak.

the cheap russian cameras that could : lomo cameras are pretty fashionable these days. but originally, the USSR made these cheap cameras with the cheapest plastic so that everyone in communist russia could own a camera. and the quality was so terrible that in today's world where everyone owns a dslr and photoshop, it's considered artsy.

retails in france at anywhere between 40€-90€ (you know they made it at like 1 dollar, rite?)
the 'diana' or 'holga' seems to be recommanded. i'm no expert.


new rules for highly evolved humans : click on the photo for very bad advice from brad pitt.

i have mell to thank for introducing me to video streaming (yes, that's how out dated i am with technology). click on picture and never have to go through the hassle of bittorrent again. 'specially if your laptop gives out the blue screen of death everytime your download speed exceeds 150kbps comme le mien.

last night finally watched the proposal and the hangover. monday is couch potato night so that's forgivable.

there'll be a solar eclipse tomorrow which will be the longest solar eclipse of the 21st century. however total solar eclipse can only be seen throughout asia notably japan, china and india.

i guess paris will stay sunny the whole day then. or nuageux, can't really tell with the crazy weather here.

though if you are superstitious, funky things are supposed to happen during eclipses.
